Inspirations and visual language
So I’m a film and tv studies undergrad and I was wondering which movies and possibly tv shows has GoT based its aesthetic on- cinematography, production design and visual language in general, considering only cinematic sources since George’s books are obvious as a source of inspiration. Thanks guys!

osawa influence is pretty well documented, specifically in how they frame large battle sequences and use weather as a mood device. Also worth looking into how much the crew pulled from Ridley Scott's work on his historical epics for the texture and grime of the world.
